let's make it simple for us dummies.

i am an a.outer who updates from current every few weeks.  i usually
  backup
  update
  make buildworld
  go single user
  make installworld
  mergemaster -cv
  make a new kernel
  install kernel
  reboot

let's hypothesize that on the 10th or so the messages have died down and i
decide to give the wonderful new elf world a try.  what are the steps (after
backing up something awful:-)?

i know, for example, there will be hidden gotchas in the ldconfig stuff in
rc.conf.local.  so please don't be too glib.

thanks

randy
